This article is not considered a psychological operation. It is a straightforward news report describing China's Xiangshan Forum, a defense summit that positions China as a growing player in global security discussions, while drawing comparisons to the more open Shangri-La Dialogue. The article subtly promotes China’s vision of a multipolar world and downplays the lack of open debate at the event, but it primarily serves as factual coverage of a diplomatic gathering.
